      Frying in vegetable oil creates potentially carcinogenic byproducts, and veg oils aren't found in nature, they're industrially extracted. Frying in animal fat is the only safe way (and tastier).

      I never knew that. I like my chips to be golden brown which you rarely find nowadays. I can't understand why they would not want their chips to be golden brown because that way they look and taste so much better. I always thought it because of the type of potato chippies used as some spuds have more natural sugar in them which helps them to brown. I got this idea from a documentary about walkers crisps manufacture and they used a certain type of potato that was low in sugar, making crisps pale looking, unlike they were years ago also.

      You can have memories from that age but it’s not always a full memory or just get triggered by nostalgia

      Minimorts In some instances that might be so and in other instances it isn’t so. No one is talking about “full memories”. The fact that he remembers going there as a child is a memory. I remember things from when I was younger than 2. Very clear and distinct memories.

    British chippies are going the way of the pub - going extinct.
    And it's simply not right, how can there be 10 kebab shops on every street and not one chippy.
